We've been to the hospital, and we're home. The good news is that Petrina is already dilated a couple of centimetres so she doesn't need gel to get things going.
A point for prayer is that baby is currently sitting high, so there's a possibility of the cord coming down first when they induce, which would mean an emergency ceasar. The doctors have a couple of options to prevent this, but please pray that while Pib's asleep tonight baby would come down of its own accord.
It was incredibly odd to be back in the birth suite tonight; I felt very unprepared. But one way or another, in 24 hours we'll be back out on the ward getting to know our new son or daughter. And after the experiences of the last two months, that will be wonderful.
